I have Samba 2.2.8 running on Debian Woody for S390. I am trying to connect
via the wins server list that is on a win 2000 wins server, but I don't see
my linux server in the list. I can ping and search and find the server by
name. I looked in the log.nmdb for messages, but the file is not being
created. Following is my smb.conf file
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 172.16.55.21 (172.16.55.21)
# Date: 2003/03/19 13:33:45
# Global parameters
[global]
security = user
workgroup = ABCBSNET
server string = LINUX3
log level = 5
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
printcap name = cups
wins server = 172.16.6.11
printing = cups
[public]
path = /home/public
valid users = +usergroup
read only = No
create mask = 0660
directory mask = 0770
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
printer admin = root
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
browseable = No
[print$]
comment = printer drivers
path = /etc/samba/drivers
write list = root
[infmgmt_cj4600c]
path = /tmp
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
[micclj01]
path = /tmp
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
Question 1 is does anyone know why I am not seeing my server from the WINS
world?
Question 2 is does anyone know why I am not getting the nmdb log file (smdb
is logging ok)?
Samba 2.2.7 was having the same problem, so I upgraded to 2.2.8 to see if it
would do better.
Thanks
